Features
Options
For direct mounting on a pressure connection (free
standing) or with a capillary tube
Direct compressor head mounting with high temperature
bellows and snubber:
- reduces the number of joints
- avoids potential leakage
- saves high cost of flexible hose
TV approved versions for high and low pressure
Micro-switch for narrow pressure differentials
Gold plated contacts for low voltage/current applications
Cables with plug PS3-Nxx/PS3-Lxx not included; to be
ordered separately (see page 8 for details)

Introduction
PS3 are equipped with a SPDT snap action contact, switching
from 1-2 to 1-4 on rising pressure and from 1-4 to 1-2 on falling
pressure (see diagram). The PS3 is factory preset according to
customers specification and is not adjustable. Several models
are available:
single diaphragm
double diaphragm

Switching points
The differential of factory set switch points can be adjusted
within the limits given in the charts on page 4 to 6. Use the
recommended lower switch point line in working envelope for
optimum results.
Example
40
pressure
(bar)
30
Example:
Step 1: Select your desired upper switch point P1. Draw a
horizontal line to cross the upper switch point line.
Step 2: Draw a vertical line from this intersection point.
Step 3: Select your desired switch point between P2 and P4.

Notes:
1. Specify always upper and lower switching points for
pressure switch with automatic reset function.
2. Specify only cut-out switching point for pressure switch
with manual reset function.
3. For versions with micro-switch only one switching point can
be adjusted while the second switching point is determined
by the fixed differential of the micro-switch (see Pressure
Ranges on page 2).
